When Jon commented that they must be directly affected by the mass shooting that left 49 people dead, one of the men responded: "We're absolutely affected, but all we can do is pray for our friends that survived and mourn the ones we lost."

The Orlando tourists went on to reveal that they'd had friends who had died as a result of the attacks.

"We've just got to improve and fix things that are keeping people unsafe," they told Snow.
